Through the rest of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, the company maintained a small, dedicated workforce. In addition to the tool work and product line, they began to do limited parts manufacturing on manual mills, lathes and grinders. Customers included Twin Disc, Inc., In-Sink-Erator, Snap-on Tools, Jacobsen Manufacturing, Inc., Modine Manufacturing Company, and Giddings & Lewis Machine Tool Co.
In 1989, Albert Jr's son, Thomas G. Marini, joined the company. The company maintained its focus on providing quality-built tooling while expanding into production machining. In 1992, the first CNC machining center was purchased. This allowed for increased capacity and capabilities. By 1998, the company had numerous CNC machines and increased employment. With the added equipment and employees, manufacturing space was now a concern to the growing company. In 2000, operations were moved into a 20,000 square foot facility at 5100 21st Street in Racine.
Thomas Marini was named President of Marini Manufacturing in 2003. Growth has continued, and the company now operates 3 shifts, running 24 hours each day, manufacturing parts for Fortune 500 Companies. In 2010, the company completed a 10,000 sf warehouse expansion. Marini Manufacturing firmly embraces the future…but will never forget its past or its origin.
